Cochrane railway station was the second of three stations on the Ropes Creek railway line in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
The station was built because of increased passenger numbers and increased production at the St. Marys Munitions Works site along with the arrival of electrification in 1957.

The station starts on a slight right-hand bend (looking towards Ropes Creek) and straightens out towards the middle. An overhead road bridge ran over the station; the waiting room was built underneath the bridge. The station was about 165 metres long and could accommodate an eight-car suburban train.
